Archaeologists have excavated the partly-preserved remains of a Pictish skeleton at a 1,400-year-old cemetery in the Highlands.
The skeleton was found on the last day of a two-week dig at Tarradale near Muir of Ord on the Black Isle.

Archaeologists say the cemetery is one of Scotland's largest recorded Pictish burial grounds.

Very PICTuresque indeed. Also very enetertaining to watch a female musician who has a manifest oral fixation.
